> Yesterday, I decided to configure my Macintosh computers, about 11 on my proxy. Everytime a Macintosh contact the internet to access a web site, the Macintosh jam around 4-5 NTLM helper for a period of 10 second to 1 minutes for each. After, the helper are released by the Macintosh Computer one by one. You can understand now the problem that I got. With only 15 helpers and 11 macs on the internet at lunch time, all helpers are jammed in a status of R (RESERVED OR DEFERRED). All other users need to wait until a NTLM helper is available. This cause, a wait time to high and squid crash and restart.
Are the Macintosh computers members of the Windows domain?

Probably the macs is showing a login dialog.. this occupies a NTLM
helper until the dialog is completed or the connection times out.
This is one of many reasons why you need very many NTLM helpers for
reliable operation. It's too dependent on the clients behaving well..
